Clinging to the Witcher world to become a god of martial arts

In terms of martial arts and wizardry training, Lorne has not found a relatively balanced point. He is also wondering which direction he should focus on developing when he returns to the Black Sun Tower.

During his trip to Wall Manor, he witnessed the extraordinary power of high-ranking wizards. The question now is whether to focus on breaking through to become a formal wizard or to cultivate more advanced martial arts to counteract this supernatural power.

With external threats looming, leaving the Black Sun Tower is a dead end, and escaping the tower means facing the insurmountable threat of Aislin.

We must find a way to gain a foothold in the Black Tower!

Unfortunately, internal troubles didn't stop there; the fact that Rudolf and his group had died was still at risk of being exposed.

Sigh... With even greater pressure on his shoulders, Lorne cleared his mind of all the clutter and cast a glance at the somewhat bewildered girl with the ahoge in front of him.

The two ultimately failed to sign a soul contract. Passes arrived too quickly, and the main force responsible for providing backup arrived at Wall Manor one after another.

They sealed off the abyss, rescued the surviving apprentices, and collected the bodies of the deceased Gunnar and others.

There was no time to sign a soul contract, and Penny could have revealed to them at any time that Lorne had killed Gunnar, but she didn't.

The two stayed at Vol Manor for about two days, waiting for the Black Tower Wizard to finish rescuing the apprentices, sealing off the Abyss, and handling the relevant situations before they were able to board the return shuttle.

To Lorne's surprise, they were not the only two apprentices to survive the trip to Wall Manor that had been recruited.

Burd also miraculously survived, while the rest of the army was wiped out.

According to him, after discovering the abyss, everyone entered it at Gunnar's urging. On the way, they discovered the bronze pillars and accidentally triggered something that caused the fallen lich to resurrect.

But it didn't attack the group; it simply summoned a horde of undead to disperse them.

Most of the apprentices died in the tide of the dead. Gunnar initially tried to take action against the fallen lich, but after losing an arm, he abandoned everyone and fled the abyss in a sorry state.

Burd's one-sided account was clearly insufficient to convince the wizard in charge of the matter, but the person involved, Gunnar, had already been reduced to a headless skeleton.

Ultimately, it could only be recorded in the case file.

As for Gunnar's death, both Lorne and Penny said they were unaware of it.

However, it is highly unreasonable for a second-tier bloodline wizard to die at the hands of an undead creature, especially since the cause of death was that his head was smashed by a rune sword.

However, no matter how they investigated, Gunnar's mark of resentment was indeed found on a pile of armor fragments, which were identified as belonging to a Death Knight.

He was indeed killed by the Death Knight.

Left with no other choice, the record states that "Gunnar was defeated by the Death Knight due to carelessness and serious injuries."

Lorne escaped unscathed, but he still needed to be wary.

His gaze was fixed on the girl with the ahoge (cowlick) who was looking left and right, and he took out the soul contract from his moonlight bag.

"Sign a soul contract with me, and you will not disclose anything about me to anyone in any form after you go back."

"Oh... okay."

After the two signed the soul contract, Lorne was completely relieved.

It is worth noting that this soul contract did not have a notary, and soul contracts that are notarized by the true spirit are usually very valuable.

But it was enough; the price of violating it was a severe blow to one's mental state.

Penny was just an apprentice after all, and the fact that she carried a soul contract was already surprising enough.

"You..." Penny still had many questions in her mind.

At the last moment, the handsome young man in front of me was captured by Aislin. How did he manage to survive under Aislin's control?

Why did Aislin flee in such a panic?

In Penny's eyes, an incredibly intense upheaval erupted once again at the very center of the abyss, lasting for a moment.

The fireflies then completely disappeared, and the negative energy permeating the abyss was also completely exhausted.

The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he didn't know where to begin, so he wisely kept quiet.

The room fell silent again. Lorne was not good with words, and he had no desire to chat with Penny, whom he had only known for a short time.

Anyway, there probably won't be any more contact after returning to the Black Sun Tower, and any potential danger from the other party has been contained through the soul contract.

Feeling bored, Lorne unfolded the panel for the first time in a long time.

After being recruited by Wall Manor, Tianhe Zhen Gang leveled up from lv3 to lv4, bringing in some attribute points, and the experience points for Tai Chi also increased to some extent.

The progress at the pilot site has taken a big step forward, with only 1.2% remaining before the next stage.

The potential that emerged during the crisis allowed Lorne to gain a deeper understanding of simple spells, and his mastery of each spell increased slightly.

Using the information on the panel, Lorne, who had sat down cross-legged, began to think about the future direction of development.

The first thing to note is the "Expansion Points" section, where you can freely exchange for martial arts techniques in the martial arts library.

Improving combat power is no longer so urgent; you can consider exchanging for a profound martial art to slowly cultivate and master.

Through cultivating the "Heavenly River True Qi" and previous studies of magic, Lorne has gained some understanding of martial arts and wizardry.

The two have something in common.

So, is it possible to achieve organic integration to some extent? Lorne had a bold idea.

After all, this is the wizarding world, where magic is gradually developed through the efforts of generations.

It is the best cultivation path developed through the exploration of this world.

As for martial arts, it is, after all, an imported cultivation system. Many profound martial arts techniques may lack the basic conditions for cultivation and the ability to advance further in this world.

This includes the subsequent transformation of magical power and the existence of "carriers".

The cultivation of martial arts will inevitably become increasingly difficult, and the benefits will gradually become disproportionate to the effort.

After much thought, Lorne benefited from the commonalities between the previous breathing techniques and the inhalation techniques, as well as the inspiration gained from cultivating the Heavenly River True Qi.

An idea quietly popped into my mind: what if martial arts were integrated into the wizard's training in a reasonable way?
